Hello, Over the past two days I've had the issue where all of a sudden I'm unable to issue a search query to all or certain indexes. I'm able to issue a basic \_mapping query to each index and it returns just fine. But if I try a search query of any kind it never returns. Disk space, memory and CPU usage are all good. I've checked through the logs and did not see anything indicating an issue. The only solution I've found that works is to restart all the nodes in the cluster. I'm currently running just a 2 node cluster where really only the first node is used. The second is just acting as a backup node where the application can timeout and choose to use if needed. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
